Accommodating large increases in sample workloads has presented a major challenge to clinical laboratories during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Despite the implementation of automa…
While investigating a signal of adaptive evolution in humans at the gene LARGE, we encountered an intriguing finding by Dr. Stefan Kunz that the gene plays a critical role in Lassa virus binding and e…
John and Curran have convincingly shown that Scanlonian contractualism is a valuable resource for evaluating pandemic response policies, and that we should reject cost-benefit analysis in favour of a …
Anopheles gambiae s.1. and An. funestus were sampled for Plasmodium spp. ookinetes in two P. falciparum-endemic sites in western Kenya. Since the ookinete is a transitional stage of short duration, oc…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate a personal-computer-based teleradiology system for the interpretation of radiologic studies from an isolated community.METHODS: During a 5-month study period, 240 radiologic stu…
PURPOSE: Research focusing on the consequences of sensory impairments for the everyday competence of the oldest-old is emerging. The two main goals of this study were to document the prevalence of sel…
Game theory has emerged as a new mathematical tool in the analysis and design of wireless communication systems, being particularly useful in studying the interactions among adaptive transmitters that…
A method for estimating the sample size required to attain a predefined linkage decision quality (type I and type II errors) is proposed using the linkage test power estimate developed by Ginsburg et …
We used computer simulation method to address the question of power in an initial collaborative sample of 51 bipolar affective disorder pedigrees. Simulations were performed for all possible combinati…
Human learners make inductive inferences based on small amounts of data: we generalize from samples to populations and vice versa. The academic discipline of statistics formalizes these intuitive stat…
Synthetic versions of human derived kairomones can be used as baits when trapping host seeking mosquitoes. The effectiveness of these lures depends not only on their attractiveness to the mosquitoes b…
Reducing the number of animal subjects used in biomedical experiments is desirable for ethical and practical reasons. Previous reviews of the benefits of reducing sample sizes have focused on improvin…
The effect of an orthostatic stress on cardiovascular and respiratory complexity was investigated to detect impaired autonomic regulation in patients with vasovagal syncope (VVS). A total of 16 female…
Accurate curvature estimation in discrete surfaces is an important problem with numerous applications. Curvature is an indicator of ridges and can be used in applications such as shape analysis and re…
BACKGROUND: Some transmissions of bacterial infection from platelet (PLT) transfusion have occurred since introduction of automated blood culturing of apheresis PLTs. The majority of these cases invol…
It was shown recently using experimental data that it is possible under certain conditions to determine whether a person with known genotypes at a number of markers was part of a sample from which onl…
AIM: To investigate chronotropic heart regulation and prognostic significance of heart rate variability (HRV) in patients with neurocardiogenic syncopes (NCS).MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 90 patie…
BACKGROUND: Although malaria is highly prevalent throughout Malawi, little is known of its transmission dynamics. This paper describes the seasonal activity of the different vectors, human biting indi…
